When shipping from Sihanoukville, Cambodia to Montevideo, Uruguay, anticipate significant delays due to the Southeast Asia Monsoon Season (May-November) and the Western Pacific Typhoon Season (June-November). Build in buffer days to schedules and confirm vessel space well in advance, especially during peak export periods (July-October). Stay updated on weather conditions closely, as heavy rains can disrupt port operations and increase transit times. Consider potential congestion at South American ports during fruit and soy export peaks (January-May, February-June) to ensure timely deliveries.

Shipping very heavy Industrial machinery demands careful planning. Use purpose‑built skids with clear lifting points, Engage experienced machinery movers for loading, and choose Flatbed or lowboy trailers rated for the full load. Secure and chock the machine to prevent any movement, and Document its condition before pickup.
Yes, moisture‑sensitive HVAC equipment must be shielded from moisture. Use sealed plastic covers with Desiccant packs inside, cap all duct and cable openings, and Choose dry containers whenever possible. For ocean freight, Consider VCI packaging for long voyages.
Exporting Construction machinery typically calls for a customs invoice, packing list, transport document, and any Export licenses applicable to your destination. We recommend including serial numbers, model numbers, and precise weights for each unit, especially for backup generators. For some destinations, You may also need certificates of origin, fumigation or ISPM‑15 declarations for wood packaging, and safety or emissions certificates for HVAC equipment.
High‑value Generators Should be protected by stand‑alone coverage, as carrier liability is usually limited and may not cover full replacement cost. Insure for total project value, confirm that Loading and unloading are covered, and Keep inspection reports and photos in case you need to file a claim. This is especially important for custom‑built factory equipment where lead times and replacement costs are high.
Crated Construction machines are occasionally stored outdoors short‑term if packaging is designed for it and placed on hardstanding, not bare ground. However, moisture‑sensitive items like HVAC equipment and Generators should ideally be kept under cover or indoors. If outdoor storage is unavoidable, Inspect wraps and tarps regularly, maintain drainage around the site, and plan for timely installation to reduce corrosion and electrical damage.
Required documentation includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any necessary export permits from Cambodia, as well as import permits and customs declarations for Uruguay.
The shipping route may be affected by seasonal weather patterns, including monsoon seasons in Southeast Asia, which can impact port operations in Sihanoukville, and storm seasons in the South Atlantic, potentially affecting shipping conditions.
